ecoDMSInstall

Overview

This node integrates with the ecoDMS document management system, allowing users to interact with various ecoDMS resources such as archives, documents, classifications, searches, folders, licenses, and document types. Specifically, for the operation "Templates für Datei abrufen" (Get Templates for File) under the Document resource, the node retrieves document templates that match or are applicable to a given file.

Typical use cases include:

• Automatically identifying and applying document templates based on the content or metadata of an uploaded file.
• Streamlining document classification and processing workflows by fetching relevant templates before further actions.
• Integrating ecoDMS template retrieval into automated document ingestion pipelines.

For example, a user can upload a scanned invoice file as binary data, and this node will fetch all matching document templates from ecoDMS that could be used to classify or process that invoice.

Properties

Output

The node outputs an array of JSON objects representing the templates applicable to the provided file. Each item in the output corresponds to a template retrieved from ecoDMS, typically including details such as template name, ID, and other metadata defined by ecoDMS.

If the node supports binary data output (not explicitly shown here), it would relate to files or attachments associated with the templates, but for this operation, the focus is on JSON metadata about templates.

Dependencies

• Requires an active connection to an ecoDMS server, configured via credentials that must include at least the server URL and authentication token.
• The node depends on ecoDMS API endpoints to retrieve document templates.
• Proper configuration of the ecoDMS API credentials in n8n is necessary before execution.

Troubleshooting

• Server URL not configured: If the ecoDMS server URL is missing in the credentials, the node throws an error: "Server-URL ist nicht konfiguriert. Bitte in den Anmeldedaten angeben." Ensure the server URL is correctly set in the credential settings.
• Unsupported Resource Error: If a resource other than those supported is selected, the node will throw an error indicating the resource is not supported.
• File Binary Property Missing: If the specified binary property does not exist or is empty, the node may fail to retrieve templates. Verify that the input binary data is correctly named and passed.
• API Errors: Network issues, invalid credentials, or ecoDMS server errors will cause failures. Check connectivity and credential validity.
